ANTONIO CONTE insists he is happy at Chelsea and wants to stay at Stamford Bridge for ‘many years’ to come.

The Italian has taken the Premier League by storm during his maiden season in England, helping the Blues establish an impressive ten-point lead at the top of the table as the campaign enters the final stages.

There have also been suggestions that the ex-Juventus boss wants more control over transfers, with technical director Michael Emenalo responsible for almost all of last summer’s business.

But Conte claims he has no problem with Chelsea’s policy and is keen to see his team push on ahead of their return to the Champions League.

Conte said: “I don’t understand [the reports about transfer policy] because you can read this situation and it’s not true.

“Honestly, I have a good relationship and when I need something I speak with the club.

“We always find a way to try and find the right solution, but always together. It’s very difficult to always take the right solution, but we always take the decision together.
